Polish Catholic Church in Halloween warning
www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-20131808?
Poland's Catholic Church has warned that modern Halloween rituals risk promoting the occult.
Archbishop Andrzej Dziega warned that Halloween was behind a "culture of death".
He wrote that "irresponsible and anti-Christian fun" introduced young people to a "world of darkness, including devils, vampires and demons" in the name of "fun".
So ….
“Halloween rituals risk promoting the occult.”
Whereas Catholic rituals celebrate the death of Jesus Christ using occult spells to perform the magic of “transubstantiation”.
a "world of darkness,
Against the Catholic world of ignorance and oppression.
including devils, vampires and demons"
The Catholic version has Devils ,Zombies and Demons while it is the congregation that is introduced to eating flesh and drinking blood (biscuits and wine).
in the name of "fun".
While the Catholic version is in the name of perpetual and universal guilt and control.
Even more staggering hypocrisy . (this time of a protestant variety..)

Why is the Church of England hosting an arms dealers' conference?
“on Thursday, a conference for arms dealers will take place in Church House, the Church of England's administrative headquarters.
Since the story broke, church authorities have come up with frankly feeble excuses for hosting this event. First, they insisted that the conference centre was a separate entity from Church House. I have made some effort to look into this claim. The distinction is a legal technicality. The conference centre is a wholly owned subsidiary company of the Church House Corporation, whose president is the Archbishop of Canterbury.
The church authorities now seem to be relying on the rather obtuse argument that the booking had been made by the Royal United Services Institute (RUSI), an "independent thinktank". The CofE's head of communications told me Church House would "probably" not have accepted a booking made directly by an arms dealer. However, "independent" does not mean "impartial". Thinktanks have their own views and positions (including Ekklesia, who I work for). RUSI lobbies in favour of the arms trade and high military spending.
Church House are relying on a distinction between a booking made by an arms company and one made by a pro-arms lobby group to host a gathering of arms companies. This distinction is at best naive and at worst misleading.”
